Sensor Si7021 not working

[Dexter0007]

Hi, I have a problem with temperature sensor. The sensor was detected on 0x40 address but enclosure plugin showing only 0. Disable SUDO not helped, sudo without password.

Octoprint log: 2022-01-18 17:20:20,933 - octoprint.plugins.enclosure - INFO - Failed to execute python scripts, try disabling use SUDO on advanced section of the plugin. 2022-01-18 17:20:20,933 - octoprint.plugins.enclosure - WARNING - An exception of type ValueError occurred on log_error.

I had the same issue, I actually opened an issue a few posts earlier on how upgrading to Python 3 broke the sensor here. Unfortunately I've not had any responses yet.

yes, same for me

I struggled with this all night but somehow got it to work with a shotgun approach...not sure if the below worked, but I did also at the end try disabling root and then the readings started coming

sudo apt-get install build-essential libi2c-dev i2c-tools python-dev libffi-dev sudo -H pip install cffi sudo -H pip install smbus-cffi sudo -H pip install Si7021

I had the same problem, and I have a temporary solution.

The log file shows the temp sensor reading tracebacks. ~/.octoprint/logs/octoprint.log

From the trace back, it appears sensor[] variable is missing a key value for temp_sensor_i2cbus

There is a temporary solution. But first, make sure the sensor is working by manually running the sensor script:

pi@octopi:~/oprint/lib/python3.7/site-packages/octoprint_enclosure $ python3 SI7021.py 40 1
41.0 | 28.2

Note the argument: 40 is the i2c address, 1 is the i2c bus. If you get something like -1|-1, it means the sensor isn't working. Try a different i2c bus (i2c_address should always be 40, this is set by the sensor IC)

Next, open init .py and manually hardcode the temp_sensor_address and temp_sensor_i2cbus to line 996 Change from the original: temp, hum = self.read_si7021_temp(sensor['temp_sensor_address'], sensor['temp_sensor_i2cbus']) to: temp, hum = self.read_si7021_temp(40, 1)

Reboot Octoprint, it should now be able to read the temp and humidity.

The approach by jx2014 worked for me. I simply used putty and did:

cd oprint/lib/python3.7/site-packages/octoprint_enclosure
nano __init__.py

edited the line: temp, hum = self.read_si7021_temp(sensor['temp_sensor_address'], sensor['temp_sensor_i2cbus']) to temp, hum = self.read_si7021_temp(40, 1)

Saved the file, exited nano

sudo reboot and presto, working! Obviously an update to octoprint enclosure will delete the modification, but works for now!
